Shortly turns long, unshareable URLs into clean links you can send anywhere, and keeps count of how often each one gets opened.
Free to use, with email-verified accounts and no visitor tracking.
Demonstration: the long URL example.com/blog/2026/how-we-grew-from-zero-to-ten-thousand-users becomes shortly.sh/gr0wth.
Any URL, however sprawling — query strings, tracking parameters and all.
Pick the ending yourself, or leave it blank and Shortly generates one.
Send it anywhere, then check back to see how often it actually got opened.
Name a link yourself, or leave it blank and get a generated one. Aliases are case-sensitive, so /Sale and /sale are two different links.
A running total per link plus a daily breakdown for the last 30 days. Only real visits count — link previews and uptime checks are ignored.
Change where a link points, or rename it, long after you made it. Renaming retires the old alias, and Shortly says so before you commit.
Your dashboard lists everything you have shortened, newest first, with its destination and click count — editable or deletable from the same row.
